Seeking6 Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 Not many words to share or add on this one. When tragedy strikes we always hope people or families will come together. While they might for a few days/weeks/months the anger settles in and splits families up even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reacher Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 Can't even imagine the emotions running through that family. I'm never going to throw my grandkids in the air or do other things I routinely did with my own kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they were talking about it on the national news this morning. Seeing as how the family is from South Bend, I will be getting updates on the local news.

As we continue to find out. Initial stories coming out of the modern day main stream media are reactionary, rather than investigative. Upon research, I have found that the toddler was active in hitting the glass at a sibling's ice hockey game, and had previously done so with a glass window on the ship. Sadly. She approached another opening on the ship with no glass and fell overboard. Time will tell what the truth will out. However, the family has already enlisted the aid of a lawyer, intent on suing the cruise line. A cruise line, I might have that I have sailed upon. And could not say anything, but good about. But then again. Anything can happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the above....but to do a released statement essentially casting blame on the cruise ship less than 48 hours after the incident. I don't know. Seems weird to me. Such a tragedy.

IUFLA Posted July 10, 2019 Report Share Posted July 10, 2019 It would seem that they'd have video surveillance cameras covering almost every square inch of that ship. That'll be the scale tipper if it exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
